Hi:

I am having trouble with finishing the entry on Meadow Lakes, CA. Please excuse my ignorance.

This is what I come up with:

Meadow Lakes is an unincorporated community in Fresno County, California.[1] It is located 6.5 miles (10 km) west-southwest of Shaver Lake Heights,[2] at an elevation of 4452 feet (1357 m).[1] The development of Meadow Lakes was first envisioned in the 1920s by Judge Ernest Walling and associates Jean Vincenz and Lloyd Jackson.[2] The Walling led group in 1927 purchased a large property of 1280 acres, a small portion of which was to include their planned Meadow Lakes named subdivision from Alva Snow and his wife Dora P. Snow. [3] Later, during the depression the Snow’s again became owners of a portion of the Meadow Lakes subdivision, including various unsold lots, its water system, and surrounding properties. A post office operated at Meadow Lakes from 1930 to 1933, with a closure for a time in 1932.[4] References[edit] 1.	^ Jump up to: a b c U.S. Geological Survey Geographic Names Information System: Meadow Lakes, California 2.	^ Waltz, Georgia Waterbury (1967).
